We supply this SKU across India with dispatch-backed availability and GST-compliant invoicing for B2B procurement.

STANLEY STMT72919-8B Application Context & Use Cases

Automotive Workshop Maintenance
The 11mm size is frequently used in:

• Engine bay brackets
• Hose clamps with hex bolts
• Transmission assemblies
• Interior fastening systems

Industrial Maintenance
Common in:

• Light fabrication assemblies
• Control panel mounting hardware
• Machinery covers
• Utility infrastructure installations

Fleet & Field Service Kits
Standard metric size required in:

• Preventive maintenance kits
• Mobile technician tool rolls
• OEM-recommended service tool sets

This socket is typically replenished due to loss or wear in high-usage environments rather than design upgrade.

Selection Guidance

Confirm the Following Before Ordering:
Drive Compatibility
Ensure your ratchet or extension bar uses a 3/8" square drive.
This socket will not fit:

• 1/4" drive tools
• 1/2" drive tools

Depth Requirement
This model is a standard (shallow) socket.
Choose a deep socket if:

• Fastener sits on a protruding threaded stud
• Nut extends beyond standard recess depth

Point Type
6-point sockets:

• Provide stronger grip on hex fasteners
• Reduce rounding risk under torque

Do not select 12-point unless fastener access angle requires it.

Capacity / Real-World Torque Logic

The torque capacity depends on:

• Drive size (3/8")
• Material strength (Chrome Vanadium)
• Fastener grade

Practical Use Case
If tightening an M7 or equivalent 11mm hex bolt:

• Typical torque range: 15–35 Nm (application dependent)
• 3/8" drive is appropriate for this range
• Avoid using breaker bars beyond recommended torque limits

For high-torque industrial fastening above 80 Nm, consider a 1/2" drive alternative.

Failure Conditions & Misuse Risks

This socket may fail prematurely if:

• Used with impact wrenches (non-impact rated)
• Paired with adapters increasing torque leverage
• Applied on damaged or rounded fasteners
• Exposed to corrosive chemicals without cleaning
• Hammered for forced engagement

Common failure modes:

• Internal rounding
• Drive-end cracking
• Chrome surface peeling (due to misuse)

Correct tool selection prevents replacement cost.

Material & Compatibility Table

Operational Handling & Installation Considerations

• Clean fastener head before engagement
• Fully seat socket before torque application
• Apply straight-line torque
• Avoid side loading
• Store in dry tool rack after use

For fleet maintenance teams, periodic inspection for internal wear is recommended.

High-Intent FAQs

1. Is this socket impact rated?
No. This is a chrome-finished manual-use socket. For impact tools, select an impact-rated alternative.

2. Can this be used with a torque wrench?
Yes, provided the torque wrench uses a 3/8" square drive.

3. Is this original STANLEY product?
Yes. Supplied as branded SKU with manufacturer identification.

4. What is the difference between 6-point and 12-point?
6-point grips the flat sides of hex fasteners, reducing rounding risk. 12-point allows easier alignment but lower grip strength.

5. Do you maintain stock for bulk orders?
Yes. Stock confirmation is provided prior to order finalization.

6. Do you supply across India?
Yes. Dispatch supported across major industrial zones and tier cities.

7. Is there a minimum order quantity?
Single units available. Volume pricing applicable for bulk procurement.
